$150 Modern Warfare 2 bundle packs in night-vision goggles

MW3 will be the third installment in the Modern Warfare series, and the eighth Call of Duty installment. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 will be released on November 8, 2011, while the Modern Warfare 3 pre-production started on April 9, 2010.

oh crap i should have preordered this

a_ko117 I totally agree but I think you should still give him a shot at explaining himself. I mean he did do the extremely hard math to discover the goggles are $70 compared to the $125 you would spend on the cheapest NVG I could find on a quick search on google. I mean the price difference is $55 (not including tax + s&h), so that's almost the price of the game. Now I enjoy making fun of idiots like this but I think it might be easier to call him a moron. I've already wasted enough of my own time typing this up.

thos NVGs look cool . . i don't know about you people . . but $70-$80 for a NVG is nothing to be complained about . . 1aaron456 . . i really had fun laughing at you dumba** . . first of all . . 70 bucks on a NVG goggles is a great bargain . . second . . why would the police confiscate it ? ?? it's from a promotional event . .that's publicly announced . . therefore the NVG is totally legal . . . duh third . . these are not military grade NVG goggles . . if you really are well-informed (or go out once in a while away from your computer). . civilian NVGs are publicly sold . . fourth . . these are functional NVGs . . not mere display-purposes-sh*t . . so these goggles can be used for airsoft night games, creeping around at night wearing them . . or other perverted things you can come up with . . . . but i go for the airsoft night games . . i don't need to creep around doing perveted things . . i have a good social life

So when you wear them and play MW2 is it like a wall hack or something, because, other than a gift, these come after the burnt piece of toast with Jesus' face on it, on my "Need to Buy" list

will you be able to wear them?

$150!!! holy @#$%!

So utterly pointless it's painful. Yet, the consumer whore in me still wants a pair so badly. CURSE YOU RECESSION! I may not even get the hardened edition, because I don't think a tin foil case and a minuscule artbook is worth the extra 20 bucks... but I wouldn't mind if I had the money. heh.

ill probably get it as long as the goggles aren't a pice of crap.

That is so dumb. BUT I SO WANT IT!!!

I've been looking on-line a bit and these things are basically a cooler looking version of a kids toy on the market. It's basically a cheap IR camera and Infra red lights. http://74.6.239.67/search/cache?ei=UTF-8&p=night+vision+goggles+toy&fr=yfp-t-701&u=arstechnica.com/news.ars/post/20080928-hands-on-with-some-surprising-80-night-vision-goggles.html&w=%22night+vision%22+nightvision+goggles+toy+toying+toys&d=UetRihlMTVyr&icp=1&.intl=us here's a link to a review of what is basically the same thing, just a less cool looking version.

as silly as that looks, i think that is the best include in the best edition of any game i've ever seen

If any of you are thinking about buying these then your the biggest moron in this blog. Infinity Ward and Activision are just trying to scam ppl into paying more money. Everyone is saying that there 150 dollar goggles. Are you guys stupid the game cost 60 bucks so the goggles are only 90 bucks but wait. the hardened edition is 80 bucks so the goggles are only 70 bucks cuz the hardened edition comes with a metal case and a book. wooot. jk. but how dumb are u guys. 70 dollar goggles am i the only 1 that knows that these are sht u should realize that unles ur a moron. its pointless. and when you get in trouble blame it on infinity ward and also the police will take ur goggles. i know i bought some before and got introuble and they took them from me. so ur giving away 70 buck i hope ur happy. stupid inifinity ward and activision. they are so good at scamming all u stupid morons.

uh, these are definitely NOT military grade, trys to look like a PVS-7 but is way too big. Probably 2nd Gen 25mm instead of the 18mm Gen-3 stuff. Note the battery pack behind the head...

LMAO! I rather keep my money thanks.

NUCKnucknuck

NUCK

but wheres my AK?

now I can combat chipmunks in tha dark

hahaha... people will put these up on eBay or CL and will try to get $300 for them and the sad part is there will be suckas who'll pay!

imagin wearing that thing for a couple of hours no thanks!!!!!

my friend told me about this but i didn't believe him, but now i do

these look just like the ones that come in the prestige edition.. they are a little different though. http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/tools/abf5/

The prestige edition is now listed.

No PC Edition? WHY? WHY? Come on Activision/Infinity, how can you let the PC gamers (true FPS players) down? We are one of the largest gamers on the PC...you're letting us down, plus you're leaving money on the table! "I WANT MY PRESTIGE EDITION for the PC"

@ sMeAgOl_VaDeR So you say these NVG is going to reach 50 ft in tree different colours, I wanna know where you heard this, because really.. I doubt it. anyway, I might get this if it comes out in Europe (more specific Norway). regarding price, you pay around the same price for a guitar hero bundle. the goggles looks waaay big though, I might sell them if it's complete sh*t, or keep them like a prop for my bedroom.

Seriously, who thinks up this crap! A kick ass mouse pad with a MW2 image on it would have been a great idea. For a prestige edition, a custom (and quality) mouse along with the pad would have been a far better idea. If the goggles are not available for PC then Infinity Ward & Activision should consider that. PC games are more into customizing their rigs/setup. A mouse and mouse pad are part of the PC gamers gear. With a MW2 mouse and pad the game would be visible even when its not being played, plus it provides something that has a true use. They should put me on the payroll for such good ideas.

Night Vision Goggles that's nice

no pc edition? wtf.. srsly..

if the goggles actually worked i would get the prestige edition

I say all games should have prestige editions,with stuff like this !!! :D

the goggles will probably have the same capabilities as the cyclops nvg toy they have out in stores. its about 100 bucks. the goggles dont start getting good until about 300, but the nice ones (the ones these are probable modeled after) are 1200 and up. easy. i bet they will still be a good conversation piece none the less.

You know what your problem is, hayate-nogotoku? You lack vision.

im just getin the hardened edition so i can get cod 1

I can't wait til some kid gets arrested for a committing a crime with "night vision goggles, which he reportedly obtained as part of a promotion for a popular video game."

night vision goggles? i mean yeah its awesome and everything but what is the point, how often do we find ourselves in a pitch black warzone and need to see, anyone who gets the prestige pack will probly say "cool, night vision" then use the goggles twice then forget about them Its a gimmik, pure and simple...an extremly awesome gimmik....an extremly awesome gimmik that im probly gonna get so ill be prepared when the zombies come

meh, this is lame

This makes modern warfare 2 10 times cooler!!!!!

yeah the goggles are gonna be POS. @specter1890 I didn't know they let little kids in the military with airsoft guns lol. If you were in the military you wouldn't say military you'd say marines or navy etc. You'd know they dont have NVG(night vision goggles) on rifles, they have NVSs(night vision scopes). And what kind of M16 were you issued(bet you don't know)?

The goggles are probably prototype from 1963 or something. They probably weigh about 90 pounds. lol.

I will most likely get the prestige edition and then sell the goggles on the street..lol

too bad I use real NVGs and a Peq 15 on my m16. Being in the real military has its perks but its nice playin video games where you get way better gear haha

@ Cowlick a good pair of NVGs cost nothing close to $30 lol good pair of NVG cost hundreds even thousands of dollars. sure you can get a POS (like the preorder goggles will probably be) for cheap but why waste your money on garbage.

There is NO PRESTIGE EDITION for the PC. So Do NOT get excited about it... PC gamers are once again not being given the same kinds of opportunities that their console counterparts are being given. So far neither Infinity Ward nor publisher Activision has commented on the reason behind this decision, despite comments from people on the Infinity Ward message boards asking for info.

$150 is kinda too much. just buy the original $60 copy or the $75 one, all you need is the game

I think I'll have to pass on the Prestige Edition and the Hardend edition. I already own a great pair of NVG's, so I'd just be throwing away money on the prestige edition; and I feel like the hardend edition is overpriced by about 10 bucks. Theres a ton of great games coming out this fall also, so I gotta spend my money wisely. Curse that devil clown Ronald McDonald and his low pay.

Lol kind of a stupid gimmick but its still pretty cool:)

night goggles!!!! hells yeah!! now i could wear it while playing at night, so i could find my chips :)

such a waste of money nvg's cose like 30 american for a good pair

I think it is totally worth it, but I have always wanted NVG's. The price is a little steep but if you have the cash why not, as a bonus you can say "I have night Vision Goggles" how many people can say that and not be full of s#!t. Pre-ordered the day they announced it was actually happening.
